Thread: Poll: How are grens after the rifle buff?29 Sep 2019, 00:52 AM Jump back to quoted post29 Sep 2019, 00:38 AMLoopDloop Or you could like, I don't know, use actual infantry to protect your flank? You wouldn't expect combat engies to singlehandedly beat a flanking grenadier or volk squad right? Or or, and stay with me on this one, it's a a big one, but you could try not getting flanked. Pioneer have synergy with the MG42 and that is way the get the extra sight radius. And the where where buffed so that hey can fight flanking infatry at point blank. Else give them K98 CE style. Being flanked means that one's opponents uses one infantry to draw fire and another to flank so not being flanked is not really an option. And yea grenadiers are actually terrible at flanking and unless they use a rifle-grande the enemy HMG can reposition or simply retreat. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Kv2 Underperforming?28 Sep 2019, 18:09 PM Jump back to quoted post28 Sep 2019, 04:57 AMSelvy289 Easly replace the 30% turret rotation with a reload buff at vet 3 (hold the title of being the last tank in the game wit hjout a reload buff with vet). But yeah it's just that, at vet 3 the kv2 is just really disappointing as it dosnt really feel like it hasn't really improved since getting it. I mean whould you prefer to fight a vet 3 is2, isu or kv2? The concept that all tanks should gain a reload is simply flawed. Unit should get bonuses designed for the specific role. KV-2 hits hard even when it does not penetrate and has little reason to hit any harder. It's vet bonuses should focus on it's defensive properties (even if that mean lowering base stat a a bit). Same goes for KV-1 (and 76mm sherman) that gain similar veterancy with the T-34/76 vet bonuses that are OP because there where designed for the T-34/76 and not superior tanks. Actually a veterancy overhaul is long overdue. (side note: The croc does not get any bonuses on its main gun nor does the Valentine) In: COH2 Balance

Not really Pioneer where buffed for that reason. They could stop a single riflemen that flank an hmg, now it is more difficult. "Pioneers We felt that pioneer damage output was under-performing and proving ineffective in combat. Near accuracy increased from 0.403 to 0.463 Mid accuracy increased from 0.23 to 0.27 Population reduced from 6 to 5" In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Poll: How are grens after the rifle buff?28 Sep 2019, 16:09 PM one of the issues with "new" riflemen is that they are better vs pioneers and thus better at flanking HMG supported by pioneers. And that lead to less support weapons and more brute force. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Summerpatch Bugreport28 Sep 2019, 15:16 PM OStheer mortar counter fire requires unit to set up although the play is not inform of that.Neither is the extra range mentioned. Either changes ability to set up automatically or inform the player. In the MHT does not benefit from the extra range, it is locked in position again without the play being informed. Allow MHT to move while ability is active or auto-cancel when a move order is given similar to the mortar. (on another note MHT take too much damage from double UKF mortar maybe add a resistance to mortar fire?) In: COH2 Balance

But if that is indeed the case then it should be patched as it is not working as intended. Nope this is the intention of MOD team...Do not ask me why. In: COH2 Balance

The maxim nerf in its golden days revaeled maxims kept stg volks in check. But i could be wrong about the time when penals got changed. Both change happened: JUNE 21st BALANCE UPDATE In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Kv2 Underperforming?28 Sep 2019, 13:07 PM Jump back to quoted post28 Sep 2019, 12:26 PMSerrith .... This was from the December 2018 commander revamp. I do know at least some of the changes got implemented. Yes but the KV-2 had a messed up reload mechanism to being with...although 2 separate weapons they used to have the same reload and one used to get a bonus when in firing indirect. Current reload values for KV-2 are: direct 9-9 indirect 0.75*(10-12)= 7.5-9 In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Poll: How are grens after the rifle buff?28 Sep 2019, 12:21 PM Jump back to quoted post28 Sep 2019, 11:35 AMMr Carmine Imo stg volks screwed up the inf balance big time. Stg volks single handedly forced the penal change and other main lines that powercreped up. ... To be accurate Penal change and VG changes happened at the same patch. And actually penal was so broken at the time (and remained broken for 6 months) that no none paid enough attention to VGs. But I do agree that VGs and Penal created a powercreep that lead to the majority of infantry being buffed. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Kv2 Underperforming?28 Sep 2019, 09:06 AM Jump back to quoted post28 Sep 2019, 07:51 AMSerrith If they are in fact as you stated two separate guns and thus have two separate stats. First, I'm puzzled why there is an arbitrary .25 second faster reload in siege mode at all. Why wouldnt it be absolutely identical. ... KV-2 has 2 separate weapons KV-2_m10_152mm KV-2_m10_152mm_indirect Now If I remember correctly both of them have a long reload 10-12 sec and both of them get a reload reduction bonus. Relic does work in mysterious ways. In: COH2 Balance
